> WriteToAvro fails if fastavro loads its python implementation of writer

> It's possible for fastavro to fail to correctly load its cython
> implementation of the Writer class in which case it will silently fall back
> to a pure python implementation. If this happens there's no outward
> indication, but line 621 in io/avroio.py will fail because writer.fo is only
> present on the cython implementation.
> To reproduce you can modify fastavro's write.py to only use its fallback:
> {code}
> #from . import _write
> from . import _write_py as _write
> {code}
> And then run a workflow that sinks to WriteToAvro(use_fastavro=True).
